Productive

Fluorescent light hit back of your head
Tired eyes open; coffee until dead
I never sleep, I'm more productive in the night time
I'm more productive, no it's not constructive
Never achieve anything but still I want to stay
I lie around an empty room
Through the moon glare I'll stare
At the night as if
It'll take me if I turn away

Tired, I'm so tired
I've been sleeping like a log but for short periods of time
Nothing's worse than when the words you sing don't rhyme
But you're beating yourself at a game of cards
Like you're drawing a bowstring across your heart
Like a string plucked, bends and breaks
It's like you baked a stale cake
You'll have your cake and eat it too
But it won't feel as good as it was meant to
When you go it'll feel like you were meant to be there
And you need it, and you want it

The fire it burns, the water it cools
The ice it chills, the dirt pulls the wool
Over my eyes and under my skin
Where to begin?
The air around the space between
An empty tongue and a hollow dream
Colours bold and visions frail
Strong in the sun but I broke in the hail
As you step outside your cage
You'll find the world is ridden with rage
As you step outside your door
You'll find where you thought there was not there was more

Thou Pt. II

Sick of myself with every passing breath
I can't deny an answer found within my chest
The heart knows best but its choices are burning up my lungs
I can't find an in-between aside from everyone's suggestions
Ain't it all so clean-cut, the way it ought to be
You're in my veins but I've been carried away
Well don't I know I'm the way I ought to be?

Finale

Walk through the people, moon leads your way
In the procession, drums start to play
They're all here for the festival, no one else needs
In the finale, found you were saved
One, two: Crowd chants the words aloud
One, two: Shout out and fight the sound
Three, four: Leave you all wanting more
Five, six: Stuck on why the cliché sticks
Sift through the illumination caused by the light
Watch where you're going before you fall down into the hole
That is your emotions, blinded by the light
When your stomach is aching to join in the crying of
One, two: Crowd chants the words aloud
One, two: Shout out and fight the sound
Three, four: Leave you all wanting more
Five, six: Stuck on why the cliché sticks

Curtain Call

Solitude is mandatory, loneliness is fun
Let's all break the melancholy, give the kids a gun
Face it, flush the consequential
Light turned on inside a room where people sit and spend the night alone
Watch the moon it's looking for you
Meet its gaze, won't ever blind you
Like the sun illuminate me; like the water, cool my flame
People come and people go
And are cliché and nondescript yet we try to difference ourselves
Dreams and thoughts drown out my reality
See who's here, I'll curtain call my company
Through and through the moonlight glaring over me
I'll see who's there, curtain call my company
Charade, get laid and talk about it
Compensate, for growing old
A fact but you ignore that in the end, pretend, it won't come
Fuck it, face the consequences. Lighter now the rooms are barren
Landscaping your life is hell and when you sleep you dream of going home
Watch the sun it's glaring at you
Meet its judging gaze, and find your
River's run and dried and your heart beats the blood of tomorrow
People leave and people grieve
And funerals are underrated, it shows we cared about them at all
Dreams and thoughts drown out my reality
See who's here, I'll curtain call my company
Through and through the moonlight glaring over me
I'll see who's there, curtain call my company

I'm exhausted but not tired, laying here in my daydream
Still, I can't remember why I was sad in the first place
Maybe it was stupid, maybe I don't care anymore about what you want?
Still, it's kind of sad to see that you now mean nothing to me
I'm not sad about it, I can live without it
Woop de doo, I'm over you
Woop de doo, I'm over you
